FEDERAL Tires

Federal FZ-201 M tires. They were as fast as my used Hoosier R7s on the same course. Ended up about 1 second faster on a 1:15 lap vs the R7s. Fairly communicative towards the limits. On Auto Cross they were very sticky.

Pros: fast, very sticky
Cons: limited sizes, short life

MICHELIN Tires

  • Grip:
  • Ride comfort:
Rating 5.0

Should be just replacing the factory PSC2s with PS4s. The difference in wear is pretty huge, and unless you're at 10/10 the performance difference is worth the $$ savings

Pros: huge difference in wear
Cons: performance difference

Firestone Tires

So far I haven't really pushed them, and I don't do much more than just some very quick backroad driving and highway miles. I've had them for almost a month (even in below / near freezing) and haven't had any issues unless there was snow on the road (obviously since they're summer tires).

Pros: easy choice, good ratings
Cons: haven't really pushed them

Akebono Brake pads
GLI Dan
  • Braking:
  • Dust:
Rating 5.0

Akebono's are expensive? News to me. I keep buying them because they offer no noticeable deficiency in braking compared to OEM in day to day driving, while making well less than half the amount of brake dust and come in substantially less expensive than OEM.

Pros: less brake dust, inexpensive
Cons: no braking deficiency

OEM Porsche Brake pads

It's honestly very low maitenence, the only thing that's slightly more costly than "normal" is your oil change due to the larger volume needed for these engines. Brakes are cheap of you do them yourself, not really different than other cars though. As far as reliability is concerned, it's top-notch.

Pros: very low maintenance, top-notch reliability
Cons: oil change slightly costly
